A Transmasc person, also known as Transmasculine, is someone who was assigned female at birth (AFAB) but identifies as more masculine.
Transmasculine people feel a connection with masculinity, but do not always identify as a man. A transmasc person may not necessarily prefer to be referred to as “he/him” or as a man; some transmasculine people use “they/them”, “he/they”, or “she/her” pronouns.
Transmasculine people may include, but are not limited to:
- Binary trans men
- Nonbinary men
- Demiboys
- Multigender people
- Genderfluid people – who identify as masculine more often than other genders.
- Nonbinary people – who identify with masculinity.
Other definitions/things to note:
Transfeminine is the feminine equivalent of transmasculine.
